    At the foot of the summit of Rochail, the small village of La Danchère is ideally positioned on the routes of several GR including the GR 54 Tour de l'Oisans and Ecrins. The view of the Rochail is perfect there! This summit is home to two glaciers, that of Rochail and the Rampant glacier. La Danchère has several guest rooms.
